Hello All,
Well it took all summer to get this boat down to bare metal to be able to repaint it the right way but I feel it was worth it. I know that most you enjoy seeing the evolution of a project and I figured I would share mine with you all as well. I will now get started on decking the boat and trying to finish it up before the cold weather get here. Sucks that I will not be able to enjoy it until next April. But at least I'll be able to enjoy it. I will take more and better pics tomorrow. the pics of the finished paint are a little blurry

Nice Job Raider. Did you do all the work while it was on those cinderblocks? Curious because I am trying to figure out how to support mine while i strip it down.

Hey All,
bob vt, Thanks
tashasdaddy, it is a 1960 Crestliner V hull.
danpemby, I had to strip all the old paint off of mine as well and I had it laying on the ground, propped against a tree, sitting on cinder blocks, you name it. It took me all summer to strip it and I had to put it in all kinds of posittions to be able to do it comfortably. I put it on the cinder blocks and 2x6 boards for support while I painted it. Thanks Guys
